Real World Performance Testing for Event-Driven Architectures & 2nd Talk TBC
Details
This month we have a great event for you. FDJ United will be hosting and providing a panel of three experts to talk about performance testing for event-driven architectures. We will also have a great speaker affiliated with TestingMind Conferences for a second QA talk, to be confirmed and shared shortly! There will also be a quiz to win a free ticket for the TestingMind Sydney Conference on May 22nd!
First Topic: Real-World Performance Testing Approaches for Event-Driven Architectures
Anusha Radhakrishnan (FDJ United)
Abitha Natarajan (Kindred Group)
Vardan Somani (FDJ United)
Abstract
"In an event-driven architecture, validating true end-to-end (E2E) platform performance is critical, yet inherently complex due to asynchronous flows, distributed components, and eventual consistency patterns. Traditional testing approaches often fall short in providing holistic visibility across the entire event lifecycle.
In this session, we present how we addressed the challenge of measuring and validating E2E performance across a distributed, event-driven platform. We will share our approach to designing a comprehensive performance testing strategy, overcoming observability gaps, and building a lightweight monitoring solution that enables real-time performance measurement across services.
Our journey highlights practical lessons, architectural considerations, and how continuous performance visibility can be embedded into the engineering culture—shifting performance from a reactive activity to a measurable, ongoing capability."
Second Talk: TBC. By an international, remote speaker to be announced
This is a great chance to learn more about performance testing and meet and network with your colleagues. We will have our usual open mic for job seekers and recruiters, so jobseekers are most welcome! Not to be missed!
